Chinese authorities are cautioning the country's citizens against visiting Germany, after a shooting rampage in a Munich shopping mall on Friday left ten people dead and 27 injured.

Mao Jingqiu, the Chinese Consul General in Munich, said no casualties of Chinese citizens were reported in the attack but warned the city is not considered "completely safe" for travelers.

Chinese visitors are advised not to travel to Germany at the moment, said Mao.

"If they still decide to come, Chinese travelers should avoid going to crowded places," Mao added.

A 17-year-old Afghan refugee carried out an attack with an axe and a knife on a train in southern Germany's Bavaria, injuring four tourists from Hong Kong.

The consul general said one of the four people was still in critical condition.
